The 2nd Edition Primer Lesson Book introduces the keyboard, note values, and the grand staff. Students play in C 5-finger scale patterns, develop recognition of steps and skips, and learn letter names independent of finger number. Musicianship is built through the use of dynamics and coloristic experimentation with the pedal. The book is organized into units which represent the major concepts and skills. As new units are introduced, earlier concepts and skills are constantly reviewed.

When this series came out 15 or so years ago, I switched all my students to it. I have found it to be well thought out and such a good stepwise progression that the students make rapid progress and rarely, if ever, "hit a wall" of understanding. The music is...

interesting throughout and there are many companion books so you can challenge the faster learners with as much material as you like. I have also used the older beginner series for ages 10-11 through adult and have found that just as good.

I am impressed with the grasp the Fabers have of HOW students learn to read. They don't skip steps. Do all 4 books, and cover EVERYTHING on the page. This produces the best results.
I also have learned to not PUSH the process. This is a great place to...

start, but if your student is young (5 or 6) start them with the Young Beginners books instead.

I have been extremely impressed with everything in the faber and faber series so far. i especially love the fact that they are very intentional about including improvisation, sight-reading, and ear-training in nearly each lesson. By that I mean that either the lesson book, technique book, or theory...

book includes those things.
I also appreciate the excellent teacher/student duets. They are fun to play...not using the predictable chord progressions that you might expect in a beginning method.
